As the nights go by, I sit alone and wonder why, My arms won't free you, My heart won't try And I ask myself why... oh why? You are gone but where? I call your name in ev'ry prayer, I walk alone where we walked together And I ask myself why, why, oh why? I will cry again, Your lips will lie again, Stars will never shine Until the day you're mine; It would be divine To find your lips so close to mine, I loved you only, Now I'm so lonely, And I ask myself why... why... oh why?
